CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

All statements included or incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than statements or characterizations of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning projected net sales, costs and expenses and gross profit margins; our accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments; the demand for our products; the competitive nature of and anticipated growth in our industries; and our prospective needs for additional capital. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates, approximations and projections about our industries and business, management’s beliefs, and certain assumptions made by us, all of which are subject to change. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, some of which are listed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company

Balqon Corporation, a California corporation (“Balqon California”), was incorporated on April 21, 2005 and commenced business operations in 2006. On October 24, 2008, Balqon California completed a merger with BMR Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“BMR”), with BMR being the survivor of the merger. Upon the closing, BMR changed its name to Balqon Corporation (the “Company”). The Company develops and manufactures complete drive systems and battery systems for electric vehicles, industrial equipment and renewable energy storage devices. The Company also designs and assembles electric powered yard tractors, short haul drayage tractors and inner city Class 7 and 8 delivery trucks utilizing its proprietary drive system technologies.

Basis of Presentation of Unaudited Financial Information

The unaudited financial statements of the Company for the nine months ended September 2013 and 2012 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K for scaled disclosures for smaller reporting companies. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year. The balance sheet information as of December 31, 2012 was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 14, 2013. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded a net loss of $2,022,241. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficit of $10,501,266 and a shareholders’ deficiency of $10,468,467. In addition, the Company has not paid $337,484 in payroll taxes and is delinquent in payment of $3,361,500 in principal and $639,965 in interest due on the Company’s convertible notes and secured debentures. Pursuant to the terms of the notes, the non-payment of principal and interest by the Company constitutes an event of default and, as a result, the holders of the notes may demand payment of all amounts outstanding under the notes. If the holders of the notes were to exercise their rights under the notes and demand the immediate payment of all amounts due and owing under the notes, the Company presently does not have the ability to pay these notes. In addition, as of September 30, 2013, an aggregate of $2,006,500 of the convertible notes and the Company’s secured debentures are secured under the terms of a security agreement granting the holders a security interest in all of the Company’s assets (including all intellectual property assets of the Company) subject to the interests of the holders of senior indebtedness (as that term is defined in the notes and the debentures).

BALQON CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012 (Unaudited)

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As a result, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Company's December 31, 2012 financial statements, raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital and to ultimately achieve sustainable revenues and profitable operations. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

The Company does not currently have sufficient liquidity to meet its anticipated working capital, debt service and other liquidity needs in the near-term. The Company believes that it has sufficient working capital until March 31, 2014, at the latest, unless it successfully restructures its debt, experiences a significant improvement in sales and/or obtains other additional sources of capital. In addition, although various secured creditors holding approximately $2,006,500 in secured convertible notes and secured debentures have not exercised their rights to foreclose on all of the Company’s assets (including its intellectual property assets), no assurance can be given that these holders of secured debt will not exercise their remedies under the Company’s outstanding secured notes and secured debentures.

The Company has been, and currently is, working towards identifying and obtaining new sources of capital. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional financing in the future. Any future financing that the Company may obtain may cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. Any debt financing or other financing of securities senior to common stock that the Company is able to obtain will likely include financial and other covenants that will restrict the Company’s flexibility. At a minimum, the Company expects these covenants to include restrictions on its ability to pay dividends on its common stock. Any failure to comply with these covenants would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, the Company’s senior secured convertible debentures issued between July and December 2010 contain covenants that include restrictions on the Company’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock.

If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate portions of its operations and product and service development efforts or to obtain funds through arrangements with strategic partners or others that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its technologies or potential products or other assets. Accordingly, the inability to obtain such financing could result in a significant loss of ownership and/or control of the Company’s proprietary technology and other important assets and could also adversely affect its ability to fund the Company’s continued operations and its product and service development efforts. Although the Company is actively pursuing a number of alternatives, including seeking to restructure its debt and seeking to raise additional debt or equity financing, or both, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Material estimates relate to the recognition of contract revenues and estimated costs to complete, recoverability of reported amounts of long-lived assets, and assumptions made in valuing derivative instruments and equity instruments issued for compensation. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Revenues

Sales of Production Units and Parts

We recognize revenue from the sale of completed production units and parts when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred and title has passed, the selling price is both fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured, all of which generally occurs upon shipment of our product or delivery of the product to the destination specified by the customer.

We determine whether delivery has occurred based on when title transfers and the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer, which usually occurs when we place the products with the buyer’s carrier. We regularly review our customers’ financial positions to ensure that collectability is reasonably assured. Except for warranties, we have no post-sales obligations.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined principally on a first-in-first-out average cost basis. Recorded inventories at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 do not include approximately $442,100 and $1,076,700, respectively of batteries and other items held on consignment from Seven One Battery Company, an affiliate of the Company’s Chairman of the Board (See Note 8). Inventories at September 30, 2013 consisted of raw materials.

Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and issuable during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares and all common equivalent shares outstanding during the period in which they are dilutive. Common equivalent shares consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, warrants or other convertible securities such as convertible notes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, common stock equivalent shares have been excluded from the calculation of loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive.

The following table summarizes the weighted average shares and common stock equivalents outstanding as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

	September 30, 2013		December 31, 2012
Weighted average shares outstanding		36,891,530		36,580,558
Common stock equivalents:
Warrants exercisable into common shares		10,295,500		10,295,500
Notes payable convertible into common shares		6,814,583		6,814,583
Total common stock equivalents		17,110,083		17,110,083

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

The Company uses various inputs in determining the fair value of its investments and measures these assets on a recurring basis. Financial assets recorded at fair value in the condensed balance sheets are categorized by the level of objectivity associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.

Authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) defines the following levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these financial assets:

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that is observable either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions.

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012 (Unaudited)

The following table presents certain investments and liabilities of the Company’s financial assets measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s condensed balance sheets on a recurring basis and their level within the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

September 30, 2013	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Fair value of Derivative Liability	$	–	$	–	$	768,472	$	768,472

December 31, 2012	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Fair value of Derivative Liability	$	–	$	–	$	847,472	$	847,472

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company used a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton models to value the derivative instruments on September 30, 2013. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Concentrations

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and unsecured accounts receivable.

The Company maintains cash balances at one bank. At times, the amount on deposit exceeds the federally insured limits. Management believes that the financial institution that holds the Company’s cash is financially sound and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 29% of total revenues were from one customer. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, 57% of total revenues were from one customer. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 34% of total revenues were from one customer. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, 49% of total revenues were from one customer. At September 30, 2013, 70% of accounts receivable were from one customer while 21% of accounts receivable were from another customer.

At December 31, 2012, 60% of accounts receivable were from one customer.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 87% of costs of revenue were to one vendor. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 86% of costs of revenue were to one vendor. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, 86% of costs of revenue were to one vendor. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, 97% of costs of revenue were to one vendor. At September 30, 2013, accounts payable to the largest vendor represented 60% of total accounts payable balances. At September 30, 2012, accounts payable to the largest vendor represented 52% of total accounts payable balances. The major vendor referred to herein in all periods is a related party, which is a vendor related by common ownership to the Company's Chairman.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. This ASU clarifies which instruments and transactions are subject to the offsetting disclosure requirements established by ASU 2011-11. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2013. We do not believe the adoption of this update will have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. Topic 740, Income Taxes, does not include explicit guidance on the financial statement presented of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. There is diversity in practice in the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits in those instances and the amendments in this update are intended to eliminate that diversity in practice. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Early adoption is permitted. We do not believe the adoption of this update will have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Other accounting pronouncements did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

Additionally, the Company issued three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The conversion price of the notes and the exercise price of the warrants are only subject to adjustment based on stock splits, stock dividends, spin-offs, rights offerings, or recapitalization through a large, nonrecurring cash dividend. During the year ended December 31, 2011, $68,500 in principal amount of these notes was converted to 68,500 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2011, $916,500 in principal was outstanding under these notes.

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012 (Unaudited)

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company negotiated Amendment and Exchange Agreements with holders of $891,500 of its $916,500 of 10% unsecured notes payable that matured on March 31, 2012. The terms of the Amendment and Exchange Agreements provide that the maturity date of these notes (the “Amended Notes”) was extended until March 31, 2013, and are now currently in default. The Amended Notes continue to accrue quarterly interest at the rate of 10% and are subject to a security agreement. The Amendment and Exchange Agreements also provide that the Amended Notes are convertible into common stock of the Company at a price of $0.40 per share, subject to adjustment for a weighted average anti-dilution provision. In connection with the issuance of the Amended Notes, the Company issued three-year warrants to purchase up to 975,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price per share of $0.40.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $891,500 was outstanding under these notes. The Amended Notes were due on March 31, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”) and are currently in default due to non-payment of the note by the Company. The Amended Notes are secured under the terms of a security agreement granting the holders of the Amended Notes a security interest in all of the Company’s personal property subject to the interests of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the Amended Notes). The security interest granted is subordinate to existing bank financing and the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures that currently have a principal balance due of $775,000.

Each of the agreements governing the Amended Notes and warrants includes an anti-dilution provision that allows for the automatic reset of the conversion or exercise price upon any future sale of the Company’s common stock, warrants, options, convertible debt or any other equity-linked securities at an issuance, exercise or conversion price below the current conversion price of the Amended Notes or exercise price of the warrants issued with the Amended Notes. The Company considered the current FASB guidance of “Determining Whether an Instrument Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” which indicates that any adjustment to the fixed amount (either conversion price or number of shares) of the instrument regardless of the probability or whether or not within the issuers’ control, means the instrument is not indexed to the issuers own stock. Accordingly, the Company determined that the conversion price of the Amended Notes and the exercise price of the warrants are not a fixed amount because they are subject to fluctuation based on the occurrence of future offerings or events. As a result, the Company determined that the conversion features and the warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock and characterized the initial fair value of these warrants as derivative liabilities upon issuance. The Company determined the aggregate initial fair value of the warrants issued to investors to be $316,876 and the initial fair value of the embedded beneficial conversion feature of the Amended Notes to be $512,613 (an aggregate amount of $829,489). These amounts were determined by management with the use of an independent valuation specialist using a Monte Carlo simulation model using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. As such, the Company recorded an $829,489 valuation discount upon issuance of the notes and warrants. The Company is amortizing this valuation discount to interest expense over the life of the notes. During the nine month ended September 30, 2013 the Company included in interest expense $207,357 and $306,960, respectively, relating to the amortization of this discount, and as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the unamortized balance of the note discount was $0 and $207,357, respectively.

(2) A holder of $25,000 in principal of the Company’s 10% Unsecured Convertible Promissory Notes issued between March 25, 2009 and June 19, 2009 did not accept the Company’s offer under the Amendment and Exchange Agreements (see note 1 above) to exchange this note for an Amended Note that matures on March 31, 2013. As such, this 10% Unsecured Convertible Promissory Note matured on March 31, 2012 and is in default due to non-payment of the note by the Company.

(3) Between February 5, 2010 and April 12, 2010, the Company entered into agreements with seven accredited investors for the sale by the Company of an aggregate of $1,500,000 of 10% Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes which are convertible into an aggregate of 1,999,993 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.75 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. Additionally, the Company issued three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,999,993 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. In connection with the offering, the Company issued three year warrants to purchase 15,999 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share to two accredited investors in consideration of finder services rendered. The conversion price of the notes and the exercise price of the warrants are only subject to adjustment based on stock splits, stock dividends, spin-offs, rights offerings, or recapitalization through a large, nonrecurring cash dividend. During the year ended December 31, 2011, $153,750 of the principal of the notes was converted into 204,998 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $1,330,000 in principal was outstanding under these notes. The notes matured on September 1, 2012 and are presently in default due to non-payment.

(4) Between July 2010 and December 2010, the Company entered into agreements with 26 accredited investors for the sale by the Company of an aggregate of $850,000 of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”) which are convertible into an aggregate of 1,133,333 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.75 per share, subject to adjustment. In connection with this offering, the Company also issued to the investors warrants to purchase an aggregate of 850,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share, subject to adjustment. The Company also issued to its placement agent warrants to purchase 68,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at exercise price of $0.75 per share, subject to the same adjustments and terms as those warrants issued to investors.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, $75,000 of the principal of the Debentures was converted into 117,186 shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the adjustment provisions of the Debentures and warrants, the conversion price of the Debentures and the exercise price of the warrants were reduced to $0.56 in connection with various dilutive issuances made in 2011 and 2010.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $775,000 in principal was outstanding under these Debentures. The Debentures were due on September 30, 2012, and subsequently extended to, March 31, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”) and are now in default due to non-payment. The Debentures are secured under the terms of a security agreement granting the holders of the Debentures a security interest in all of the Company’s personal property.

Each of the agreements governing the Debentures and warrants includes an anti-dilution provision that allows for the automatic reset of the conversion or exercise price upon any future sale of common stock instruments at or below the current exercise price. The Company considered the current FASB guidance of “Determining Whether an Instrument Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” which indicates that any adjustment to the fixed amount (either conversion price or number of shares) of the instrument regardless of the probability or whether or not within the issuers’ control, means the instrument is not indexed to the issuers own stock. Accordingly, the Company determined that the conversion price of the Debentures and the exercise price of the warrants are not a fixed amount because they are subject to fluctuation based on the occurrence of future offerings or events. As a result, the Company determined that the conversion features and the warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock and characterized the fair value of these warrants as derivative liabilities upon issuance.

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012 (Unaudited)

The Company determined that upon issuance in 2010, the aggregate fair value of the warrants issued to investors and its placement agent to be $511,399 and the initial fair value of the embedded beneficial conversion feature of the Debentures to be $504,440 (an aggregate amount of $1,015,839). These amounts were determined by management with the use of an independent valuation specialist using a Monte Carlo simulation model using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. In accordance with current accounting guidelines, the excess of $165,839 of derivative liability created over the face amount of the Debentures was considered to be a cost of the private placement. In addition, the Company also incurred another $193,500 of closing costs (consisting of $93,500 of placement agent fees and $100,000 of legal fees directly related to the offering). As such, the Company recorded an $850,000 valuation discount upon issuance, and in 2010, recognized private placement costs of $358,339 for financial reporting purposes. As of December 31, 2012, the Company amortized $269,560 of the valuation discount, and the remaining unamortized valuation discount of $12,386 as of December 31, 2012 has been offset against the face amount of the Debentures for financial statement purposes. The remainder of the valuation discount was amortized as interest expense during the nine month ended September 30, 2013.

(5) On May 18, 2012, the Company entered into Agreements with 3 accredited investors for a sale by the Company of an aggregate of $340,000 10% Secured Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes (the “May 2012 Notes”) which are convertible into an aggregate of 850,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.40 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. The notes were due on March 31, 2013 and are now in default due to non-payment. The May Notes are subordinated to the right to the prior payment of all Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the notes). The notes pay quarterly interest at the rate of 10% and are subject to a security agreement that secures the Notes by the Company’s assets. The security agreement is subordinate to existing bank financing and the Debentures (as defined below) that currently have a principle balance due of $775,000 and the Amended Notes that currently have a balance due of $891,500. Additionally, the Company issued three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 340,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share, subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $340,000 was outstanding under these notes.

The conversion price of the May 2012 Notes are subject to full ratchet anti-dilution provisions and also subject to adjustment based on stock splits, stock dividends, spin-offs, rights offerings, or recapitalization through a large, nonrecurring cash dividend. Each of the agreements governing the May 2012 Notes include an anti-dilution provision that allows for the automatic reset of the conversion price upon any future sale of the Company’s common stock, warrants, options, convertible debt or any other equity-linked securities at an issuance, exercise or conversion price below the current conversion price of the May 2012 Notes. The Company considered the current FASB guidance of “Determining Whether an Instrument Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” which indicates that any adjustment to the fixed amount (either conversion price or number of shares) of the instrument regardless of the probability or whether or not within the issuers’ control, means the instrument is not indexed to the issuers own stock. Accordingly, the Company determined that the conversion price of the May 2012 Notes are not a fixed amount because they are subject to fluctuation based on the occurrence of future offerings or events. As a result, the Company determined that the conversion features are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock and characterized the fair value of the conversion feature of the notes as derivative liabilities upon issuance.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012 (Unaudited)

The Company determined the aggregate fair value of the warrants issued to investors to be $109,140 and the initial fair value of the embedded beneficial conversion feature of the May 2012 Notes to be $136,850 (an aggregate amount of $245,990). These amounts were determined by management with the use of an independent valuation specialist using a Monte Carlo simulation model using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model. As such, the Company recorded a $245,990 valuation discount upon issuance of the notes and warrants. The Company is amortizing this valuation discount to interest expense over the life of the notes. As of December 31, 2012, the Company amortized $185,079 of the discount, and the remaining unamortized valuation discount of $60,911 as of December 31, 2012 has been offset against the face amount of the Debentures for financial statement purposes. The remainder of the valuation discount was amortized as interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

In June 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock. Under the authoritative guidance, effective January 1, 2009, instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. The conversion feature of the Company’s Debentures (described in Note 4), and the related warrants, do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion and exercise prices, respectively, may be lowered if the Company issues securities at lower prices in the future. The Company was required to include the reset provisions in order to protect the holders of the Debentures from the potential dilution associated with future financings. In accordance with the FASB authoritative guidance, the conversion feature of the Debentures was separated from the host contract (i.e., the Debentures) and recognized as a derivative instrument. Both the conversion feature of the Debentures and the related warrants have been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

As of December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2013, the derivative liabilities were valued using a probability weighted average Black-Scholes Merton Option pricing model with the following assumptions:

	September 30, 2013		December 31, 2012
Conversion feature:
Risk-free interest rate		0.10%		0.18%
Expected volatility		129.00%		186.99%
Expected life (in years)		.25 years		.25 years
Expected dividend yield		0		0

Warrants:
Risk-free interest rate		0.10%		0.25%
Expected volatility		129.00%		186.99%
Expected life (in years)		2.0 years		2.5 years
Expected dividend yield		0		0

Fair Value:
Conversion feature		626,309		579,821
Warrants		142,163		267,651

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012 (Unaudited)

The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. The expected volatility was based on the historical statistical volatility of the Company over the past 12 months. The expected life of the conversion feature of the Debentures was based on the term of the Debentures and the expected life of the warrants was determined by the expiration date of the warrants. The expected dividend yield was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its common stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its common stockholders in the future.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the aggregate derivative liability of the conversion feature and the warrants was $768,472 and $847,472 respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded a change in fair value of the derivative liabilities of $79,000.

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had available Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards to reduce future taxable income. The amounts available were approximately $25,400,000 and $20,400,000, respectively, for federal and for state purposes. The Federal carryforward expires in 2028 and the state carryforward expired in 2018. Given the Company’s history of net operating losses, management has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to realize the tax benefit of the carryforwards.

Accordingly, the Company has not recognized a deferred tax asset for this benefit. Upon the attainment of taxable income by the Company, management will assess the likelihood of realizing the tax benefit associated with the use of the carryforwards and will recognize a deferred tax asset at that time.

Current standards require that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Significant components of the Company’s deferred income tax assets are as follows:

	September 30, 2013 (Unaudited)			December 31, 2012
Deferred income tax asset:
Net operating loss carryforward	$	10,700,000		$	10,100,000
Valuation allowance		(10,700,000	)		(10,100,000	)
Net deferred income tax asset	$	–		$	–

Reconciliation of the effective income tax rate to the U.S. statutory rate is as follows:

	September 30, 2013 (Unaudited)		December 31, 2012
Tax expense at the U.S. statutory income tax		(34.0)%		(34.0)%
State tax net of federal tax benefit		(5.8)%		(5.8)%
Increase in the valuation allowance		39.8%		39.8%

The Company adopted authoritative guidance which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under the current accounting guidelines, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Current accounting guidelines also provide guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and require increased disclosures. At the date of adoption, and as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

City of Los Angeles Agreement

During 2009, under the terms of the Company’s agreement with the City of Los Angeles, the Company requested and was issued an advance payment in the amount of $1,159,601. This advance payment was recorded as a customer deposit. During June 2012, we billed $630,000 to the City of Los Angeles to upgrade six of the electric trucks previously delivered from lead acid batteries to lithium ion batteries. This billed amount was applied as a reduction of the advance payment leaving an unpaid balance of $529,601 on this advance as of September 30, 2013. Our agreement with the City of Los Angeles has been terminated, to the extent that we do not receive additional purchases from the City of Los Angeles for the remaining balance due, we may be required to return the unpaid balance to the City of Los Angeles. We anticipate selling additional products and services during the next nine months to reduce the unpaid balance; however we presently do not have the funds to pay this advance if payment is requested by the City of Los Angeles.

Lego Agreement

On July 9, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Representation Agreement (the “Lego Agreement”) with Lego Battery Sales, LLC (“Lego”). The terms of the Lego Agreement call for the sale by the Company to Lego of 1,000 batteries for an aggregate sales price of $350,000.

The Lego Agreement further requires that the Company serve as Lego’s exclusive sales agent and representative to market and resell the batteries on behalf of Lego. The sales prices of the batteries must be at a minimum sales price of $490 per battery. In consideration for its services as sales agent and representative, the Company shall earn a sales commission equal to the excess of the sales price of each battery above the minimum sale price. The Lego Agreement is secured by a pledge of 2,450,000 shares of common stock owned individually by the Company’s president; Mr. Balwinder Samra. If the Company does not sell the minimum consideration of $490,000 for the sale of the 1,000 batteries by January 9, 2013, Lego may foreclose on these pledged shares. The term of the Lego Agreement is for six months and may be extended by mutual consent of the parties. On January 9, 2013, the parties signed an Amendment Agreement extending the foreclosure date from January 9, 2013 to July 9, 2013 in return for 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock owned individually by the Company’s President, Balwinder Samra. The Company recorded the fair value of these shares of $300,000 as a cost and as contribution to capital. The Company has received a purchase order for 500 batteries from an electric vehicle manufacturer and currently is awaiting payment from the customer prior to shipment of the batteries. In addition, the Company plans to use the remainder of the batteries for production of on-road electric vehicles. The Company has informed Lego Battery Sales of its sales plan and expects to negotiate a reasonable extension of the deadline within the next thirty days.

Business Overview

Recent Developments

We are in default of $3,361,500 in principal amount and $639,965 in accrued interest in our convertible notes and secured debentures. Although we are actively pursuing a number of alternatives, including seeking to restructure our debt and seeking to raise additional debt or equity financing, or both, there can be no assurance that we will be successful.

During the first nine months of 2013, a significant portion of our engineering efforts have been focused on designing an electric drive system for an electric bus being jointly developed by us and Sichuan Automotive Group for inner city applications in China. In November 2012, we signed a Joint Development Agreement between our companies and received a purchase order to develop a zero emissions battery-powered inner city six meter bus for the China market. Sichuan Automotive is a leading provider and operator of buses in central China and also manufactures all electric SUV’s for the local market.

In March 2013, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with a large port operator in Turkey to develop the electric yard tractor market in Turkey. Under this Agreement, we have agreed to jointly develop a repower kit for diesel yard tractors operated in the region to convert diesel yard tractors to electric yard tractors. In March 2013, we received a purchase order for our electric yard tractor, the Nautilus XRE20, which will be used for testing and evaluation at a port terminal in Turkey.

In April 2013, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the second largest truck and bus manufacturer in China to integrate our resources to develop electric buses for the China and North American markets. Under the terms of the Memorandum of Understanding, both companies have agreed to cooperate in developing zero emission battery powered electric bus prototypes for the China and North American markets. Under the terms of the Memorandum of Understanding, we have agreed to be sole the distributor of the resulting products worldwide, while our Chinese partner has agreed to be responsible for all manufacturing and marketing activities in China.

In June 2013, we started shipment of a 700 lithium battery purchase order to a large electric bus manufacturer. This order is a result of over a twelve month demonstration of our lithium batteries in an inner city bus application. In September 2013, we delivered lithium batteries and flux vector controllers for use in an on-road city transit bus application. As of the date of this report, six electric buses are being operated in an inner city transit application. Resulting from successful integration of our previously delivered systems, in November 2013, we received an additional order for four battery systems and controllers from our customer.

In August 2013, we received a purchase order for approximately 500 lithium batteries from a large telecommunications storage battery provider. This purchase order is a result of a one year successful demonstration of lithium battery storage capabilities at a number of telecommunication sites. We anticipate continued growth of this market during the next twelve months.

In August 2013, we received a purchase order for our drive system and battery system for electric yard tractors from our European OEM partner. This order is a result of successful demonstration of electric yard tractors in Europe by our OEM partner.

In November 2013, we received a purchase order for 400 kwhr lithium battery energy storage system for use in a large commercial solar application. We anticipate the system to be operational in January 2014.

Business Overview

We are a developer and manufacturer of electric vehicles, drive systems and lithium battery energy storage systems. Our product line includes battery powered heavy-duty on-road trucks and off-highway yard tractors, designed to transport cargo loads of up to 30 tons in short haul applications. We also design, assemble and distribute lithium battery powered energy storage solutions to electric vehicle manufacturers, renewable energy storage providers and industrial equipment manufacturers.

Our business strategy leverages our ability to integrate our core technologies, flux vector inverter, battery management system (“BMS”), and battery charger into a seamless operating system that provides superior ease-of-use to our customers. We believe continued investment in research and development of electric vehicle, charger and battery system technologies is critical to the sale of innovative products and technologies. As part of our strategy, we plan to partner with solution providers in the solar, wind and renewable energy marketplace to jointly develop product solutions for emerging energy storage markets. We also plan to continue our expansion into the global vehicle market through joint development of electric trucks and buses with OEMs in emerging markets. Our sales strategy includes expanding our online sales through addition of third party accessories and components related to energy storage markets.

We founded Balqon Corporation to develop inverter technology for electric vehicles with focus on heavy duty truck and bus applications. In 2007, we designed and manufactured the world’s first battery powered heavy duty electric tractors for use at the Port of Los Angeles to transport 30 ton containers in both off-highway and short haul applications. Our first product, the Nautilus XE20, featured our proprietary drive systems which was comprised of an electric motor, transmission, our proprietary flux vector motor controller (which controls the speed of an electric motor by varying the input frequency and voltage from a vehicle’s batteries), power electronic components and proprietary software configured to specific application needs.

In 2009, we incorporated lithium batteries to increase the range of the tractor to 150 miles on a single charge. Our lithium battery system also featured our proprietary BMS with operating software designed to protect lithium batteries during over-charge and discharge conditions. We also developed a fast battery charging system for our trucks and tractors to reduce the charge time from 8 hours to 2.5 hours.

We are the exclusive distributor of lithium batteries manufactured by Winston Battery Limited. Our distribution agreement provides us access to low cost lithium iron phosphate batteries in sizes varying from 40 amp hour to 1,000 amp hour. Winston Battery Limited is an exclusive developer and manufacturer of high capacity lithium batteries ranging from 400 amp hour to 1,000 amp hour. We develop, manufacture and market lithium battery storage products designed to be the direct replacement of lead acid battery systems.

Our core technologies of inverters, BMSs, charger, software, operating system and lithium batteries provides us with the ability to partner with OEMs of fossil fuels based vehicles and lead acid battery based energy storage system manufacturers. Our ability to provide drive systems, battery systems and a battery charger integrated by our proprietary operating system reduces development time and costs for our OEM customers.

We have jointly developed heavy duty trucks, tractors and buses with OEMs in Europe, China, India and United States. We believe familiarity with local brands, designs, ergonomics and service network is essential to customers purchase decision.

We have made significant investments in integrating our drive systems into third party OEM vehicle platforms, and believe market introduction of these localized vehicle platforms will provide increased sales for our drive systems. Our joint product development efforts have focused on markets with high urbanization and air pollution to provide us the best opportunity for sales. In smaller regional markets we utilize a qualified dealer network to promote and service our products.

Our products include battery powered electric trucks and tractors: (i) the Nautilus XRE20, a heavy-duty electric yard tractor; (ii) the Nautilus MX30, a heavy-duty, Class 8 electric short-haul tractor; and (iii) the Mule M150, a heavy-duty, Class 8 electric inner city delivery truck. We also market and sell lithium battery cells and storage solutions under the brand name of HIQAP™. We sell our trucks and tractors through a direct sales force and dealers, while our battery related products and accessories are marketed through our online store and retailers of energy storage products.

In 2012, we developed high energy capacity lithium battery energy storage systems for the solar, wind and telecommunication industry. We also developed lead acid replacement packs for baggage tractors used at airports and industrial warehouses. In 2013, we developed a 30 kwhr energy storage system, model ESS30HD, which incorporates our high capacity batteries and related power electronics to provide a direct replacement of lead acid batteries in residential markets. During the second quarter, approximately 20% of our sales are attributed to energy storage systems.

In 2012, we received a purchase order for electric drive systems from a European manufacturer of yard tractors, located in the Netherlands. In 2012, our OEM partners in Europe (Belgium and the Netherlands) introduced two new products to the market, showcasing our electric drive system. In 2012, significant resources were allocated to the development of our on-road heavy-duty electric tractor, the Nautilus MX30. Currently, this vehicle is undergoing on-road testing and complies with DOT regulations for on-road Class 8 tractors. Our development activities also resulted in the receipt of a grant from the AQMD for the development of three additional tractors for testing at Port of Los Angeles. In 2012, we signed a Joint Development Agreement with the fifth largest bus manufacturer in China to develop an all electric inner city bus.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe that the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements:

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Material estimates relate to the recognition of contract revenues and estimated costs to complete contracts in process, recoverability of reported amounts of long-lived assets, and assumptions made in valuing derivative instruments and equity instruments issued for compensation. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Revenues

Sales of Production Units and Parts. We recognize revenue from the sale of completed production units and parts when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred and title has passed, the selling price is both fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured, all of which generally occurs upon shipment of our product or delivery of the product to the destination specified by the customer.

Contract Revenue and Cost Recognition on Prototype Vehicles. In accounting for contracts, we recognize revenues using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting by relating contract costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion. This method is used because management considers costs to be the best available measure of progress on its contracts. Contract losses are provided for in their entirety in the period that they become known, without regard to the percentage-of-completion. We also recognize as revenues costs associated with claims and unapproved change orders to the extent it is probable that such claims and change orders will result in additional contract revenue, and the amount of such additional revenue can be reliably estimated.

Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs. The liability “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts” represents billings in excess of revenues earned.

Stock-Based Compensation

We periodically issue stock instruments, including shares of our common stock, stock options, and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. We account for stock option awards issued and vesting to employees in accordance with authorization guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, where the value of stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Options to purchase shares of our common stock vest and expire according to the terms established at the grant date.

We account for stock options and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.

We estimate the fair value of stock options and warrants using the Black-Scholes Merton option-pricing model, which was developed for use in estimating the fair value of options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. This model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility of the underlying stock and the expected life of stock options. Projected data related to the expected volatility of stock options is based on the average volatility of the trading prices of comparable companies and the expected life of stock options is based upon the average term and vesting schedules of the options. Changes in these subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the estimate, and therefore the existing valuation models do not provide a precise measure of the fair value of our employee stock options.

We estimate the fair value of shares of common stock issued for services based on the closing price of our common stock on the date shares are granted.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We evaluate all of our financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, through June 30, 2012 we used the Monte Carlo simulation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates as of December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2013, the derivative liabilities were valued using a probability weighted average Black Scholes Merton Option pricing model. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The FASB has established guidelines regarding when impairment losses on long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, should be recognized and how impairment losses should be measured. Guidance of the FASB also provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of and significantly changes the criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held-for-sale. We periodically review, at least annually, such assets for possible impairment and expected losses. If any losses are determined to exist they are recorded in the period when such impairment is determined. Based upon management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of our long lived assets at September 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

Income Taxes

We recognize income taxes for the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the future tax consequences of transactions that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our total revenues decreased by $405,335, or 57%, to $306,989 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $712,324 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in revenues was a result of lower drive system sales. Gross profit during the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $19,781, up $1,591,594, or 101%, from the same period in 2012. We reported a net loss of $28,037 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to a net loss of $4,191,157 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Losses from operations as a percentage of sales during the three months ended September 30, 2013 was 90%, as compared to losses from operations as a percentage of sales of 315% during the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in losses during the three months ended September 30, 2013 is primarily attributable to decreases in general and administrative expenses, no losses from the write down in recoverable inventories and a decrease in research and development costs. A $337,039 gain on the change in the fair value of the derivative liability was realized during the three months ended September 30, 2013 while a $1,458,609 loss on the change in the fair value of the derivative liability was realized during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Our product mix during the third quarter of 2013 varied from our product mix during the third quarter of 2012. During the third quarter of 2013, sales of our lithium batteries accounted for 93% of our total sales as compared to 75% during the third quarter of 2012.

As of September 30, 2013, we had a working capital deficiency of $10,501,266, an accumulated deficit of $30,463,957 and reported a net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of $2,022,241. Our plans for correcting these deficiencies include increasing sales of our vehicle and drive systems, reducing material costs for products and obtaining additional financing, which we expect will help provide us with the liquidity necessary to meet our operating expenses.

As of the date of this report, we had a backlog of $2,178,832. The amount of backlog orders represents revenue that we anticipate recognizing in the future, as evidenced by purchase orders and other purchase commitments received from customers, but on which work has not yet been initiated or with respect to which work is currently in progress. As of the date of this report, 31% of our backlog consists of vehicles, 51% consists of batteries, 9% consists of a drive system, 2% consists of vehicles system, 6% consists of controllers and the remaining 1% consists of parts and accessories. As of the date of this report, 77% of our backlog consists of U.S. customers, while 23% consists of international customers. Our backlog does not reflect a $975,000 Department of Energy grant awarded to us, which we are awaiting contract documents. We believe that the majority of our current backlog will be shipped within the next 12 months. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in fulfilling such orders and commitments in a timely manner or that we will ultimately recognize as revenue the amounts reflected as backlog.

We anticipate that our future sales will be more diversified than in previous years. We believe future sales will reflect our focus on energy storage systems and battery sales to OEMs. We believe our strategic relationships with OEMs in Europe and Asia will result in additional sales for our electric drive systems.

The tables presented below, which compare our results of operations from one period to another, present the results for each period, the change in those results from one period to another in both dollars and percentage change, and the results for each period as a percentage of net revenues. The columns present the following:

The first two data columns in each table show the absolute results for each period presented.

The columns entitled “Dollar Variance” and “Percentage Variance” shows the change in results, both in dollars and percentages. These two columns show favorable changes as a positive and unfavorable changes as negative. For example, when our net revenues increase from one period to the next, that change is shown as a positive number in both columns. Conversely, when expenses increase from one period to the next, that change is shown as a negative in both columns.

The last two columns in each table show the results for each period as a percentage of net revenues.

Net loss	$	(28,037	)	$	(4,191,157	)	$	4,163,120			99%		(9)%		(588)%

Net Revenues. The 57% decrease in our revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2013 is largely due to a decrease in drive system sales when compared to the same period in 2012. During the third quarter of 2012, 88% of our revenues were generated from sales of our batteries and drive systems.

Gross Profit. Gross profit during the third quarter of 2013 was $19,781, up $1,591,594 or 101% compared to the third quarter of 2012. The increase in gross profit margins in 2013 as compared to 2012 is attributable to lower costs associated with the write-down of non-recoverable inventories.

General and Administrative Expenses. During the third quarter of 2013, we decreased our general and administrative expenses by $337,573 compared to the same period in 2012. This decrease is comprised of a decrease in unapplied overhead of $128,401, a decrease in accounting and audit fees of $15,904, a decrease in legal fees of $45,988, a decrease in officer salaries of $27,322, and a net decrease of $133,250 in other general and administrative expenses. We expect to maintain our general and administrative expenses at the current level of percentage of revenues for the near term.

Research and Development Expenses. The decrease in research and development expenses of $33,505 is primarily due to a decrease in salaries and wages associated with a reduced headcount in our research and development group. We expect our research and development expenses to increase during the remainder of the year as we develop new technologies and improved drive systems for our OEM partners worldwide.

Depreciation and Amortization. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses of $4,614 is largely due to assets that became fully-depreciated during the year ended December 31, 2012, as such depreciation expense was less recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability. The financial instruments that resulted in the derivative liability were acquired during the third quarter of 2010. During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the aggregate fair value of our derivatives decreased to $768,472. This amount was determined by management using a probability weighted average Black-Scholes Merton Option pricing model. During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the change in the fair value of derivatives on our financial statements was reported as a decrease of $337,039. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the change in the fair value of derivatives on our financial statements was reported as an increase of $1,458,609. The change in the fair value of the derivative liability from the quarter ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012, was $1,795,648.

Interest Expense. The decrease in interest expense of $400,186 is largely attributable to reduced amortization of the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible notes payable.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

	Nine Months Ended September 30,						Dollar Variance			Percentage Variance		Results as a Percentage of Net Revenues for the Nine Months Ended September 30,

Net loss	$	(2,022,241	)	$	(6,690,270	)	$	4,668,029			70%		(180)%		(360)%

Net Revenues. The 40% decrease in our revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is largely due to decrease in drive system sales. During the first nine months of 2012, approximately 34% of our revenues were generated from the upgrade of six trucks previously delivered to the City of Los Angeles from lead acid batteries to lithium ion batteries.

Gross Profit. During the first nine months of 2013 our gross profit was $33,079, up $1,313,437 or 103% compared to the first nine months of 2012. The decrease in gross profit margins in 2013 as compared to 2012 is attributable to the change in sales product mix with higher percentage of sales related to battery sales to large OEM’s.

General and Administrative Expenses. During the first nine months of 2013, we decreased our general and administrative expenses by $510,234 compared to the same period in 2012. This decrease is comprised of a decrease in unapplied overhead of $155,666, a decrease in accounting and audit fees of $189,562, a decrease in legal fees of $99,619, a decrease in officer salaries of $86,679 and a decrease in consulting fees of $51,798.

Research and Development Expenses. The decrease in research and development expenses of $103,628 is primarily due to a decrease in salaries and wages associated with a reduced headcount in our research and development group.

Depreciation and Amortization. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses of $13,647 is largely due to assets that became fully-depreciated during the year ended December 31, 2012, as such depreciation expense was lower during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability. The financial instruments that resulted in the derivative liability were acquired during the third quarter of 2010. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the aggregate fair value of our derivatives decreased to $768,472. This amount was determined by management using a probability weighted average Black-Scholes Merton Option pricing model. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the change in the fair value of derivatives on our financial statements was reported as a decrease of $79,000. During the nine month ended September 30, 2012, the change in the fair value of derivatives on our financial statements was reported as an increase of $1,074,272. The change in the fair value of the derivative liability from the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, was $1,153,272.

Interest Expense. The decrease in interest expense of $902,003 is largely attributable to reduced amortization of the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible notes payable.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We do not currently have sufficient liquidity to meet our anticipated working capital, debt service and other liquidity needs in the very near-term. We believe that we have sufficient working capital to continue operations until approximately March 31, 2014, at the latest, unless we successfully restructure our debt, experience a significant improvement in sales and/or obtain other sources of liquidity. We are in default on $3,361,500 in principal amount and $639,965 in accrued interest on our convertible notes and secured debentures. We are also delinquent on $337,484 of payroll taxes. Although we are actively pursuing a number of alternatives, including seeking to restructure our debt and seeking to raise additional debt or equity financing, or both, there can be no assurance that we will be successful. If we cannot restructure our debt and obtain sufficient liquidity in the very near term, we may need to seek to protection under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we funded our operations from cash provided from operations, and use of proceeds from sale of batteries consigned to us by SOL, a related party, and deferred payment of $907,348 to fund working capital needs. As of September 30, 2013, we had a working capital deficiency of $10,501,266 as compared to working capital deficiency of $8,813,025 at December 31, 2012. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 we had an accumulated deficiency of $30,463,957 and $28,441,716, respectively, and cash and cash equivalents of $62,426 and $33,869, respectively.

During 2009, under the terms of the City of Los Angeles Agreement, we requested and were issued an advance payment in the amount of $1,159,601 from the City of Los Angeles. During June 2012, we billed $630,000 to the City of Los Angeles to upgrade six of the electric trucks previously delivered to from lead acid batteries to lithium ion batteries. This billed amount was applied as a reduction of the advance payment leaving an unpaid balance of $529,601 on this advance. Our agreement with City of Los Angeles has been terminated, to the extent that we do not receive additional purchases from City of Los Angeles for the remaining balance due, we may be required to return the unpaid balance to City of Los Angeles. We anticipate selling additional products and services during the next 12 months to reduce the unpaid balance; however we presently do not have the funds to pay this advance if payment is requested by the City of Los Angeles.

Our available capital resources at September 30, 2013 consisted primarily of approximately $62,426 in cash and cash equivalents. We expect that our future available capital resources will consist primarily of cash on hand, sale of consigned batteries, cash generated from our business, if any, and future debt and/or equity financings, if any.

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $28,557 as compared to cash used by operating activities in 2012 of $122,066. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, cash flows from operating activities included a net loss of $2,022,241and depreciation and amortization of $10,824. Material changes in asset and liabilities at September 30, 2013 as compared to December 31, 2012 that affected these results include:

	·	an increase in accounts receivable of $20,382;
	·	an increase in inventory of $35,087;
	·	a net increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,281,073, of which $907,348 was an increase in related party accounts payable; and
	·	an increase of $241,385 in customer deposits.

Cash used by financing activities totaled none for the first nine months of 2013.

Between February 2010 and April 2010, we entered into agreements with 11 accredited investors for the sale by us of an aggregate of $1,500,000 of 10% Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes which were initially convertible into an aggregate of 1,999,993 shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.75 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. Additionally, we issued to these investors three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,999,993 shares of common stock.

Between July 2010 and December 2010, we raised an aggregate of $850,000 through the issuance of senior secured convertible debentures to 26 accredited investors. The senior secured convertible debentures are secured by a security interest in all of our personal property (subject to customary exceptions) and were initially convertible into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.75 per share (subject to adjustment). In connection with this offering, we also issued five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 850,000 shares of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.75 per share (subject to adjustment). Under the adjustment provisions of the senior secured convertible debentures and warrants, the conversion price of the senior secured convertible debentures and the exercise price of the warrants were reduced to $0.64 in connection with a private placement of our common stock and warrants in December 2010. The terms of the senior secured convertible debentures include a restriction on our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.

In December 2010, we raised $5,000,000 through the issuance of 7,812,500 shares of our common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase up to 7,812,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.64 per share.

In 2011, we raised $148,666 in connection with the issuance of 283,332 shares of our common stock upon the exercise of warrants.

On May 18, 2012, we entered into agreements with 3 accredited investors for a sale by us of an aggregate of $340,000 10% Secured Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes (the “May 2012 Notes”) which are convertible into an aggregate of 850,000 shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.40 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. The notes were due on March 31, 2013 and are subordinated to the right to the prior payment of all Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the notes). The security agreement is subordinate to existing bank financing and the Debentures (as defined below) that currently have a principle balance due of $775,000 and the Amended Notes that currently have a balance due of $891,500. Additionally, we issued three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 340,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share, subject to adjustment.

As of December 31, 2011, Mr. Winston Chung, our Chairman of the Board, had advanced to us $500,000. The advance was non-interest bearing, and with no other defined terms. As of December 31, 2011, Mr. Chung also held warrants to acquire 7,812,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.64 per share. The warrants have vested and expire on December 30, 2015. Effective March 31, 2012, we, Mr. Chung and SOL, a company related to the Chairman by common ownership, entered into an agreement whereby the exercise price of certain warrants held by SOL were reduced to $0.40 per share. Due to the modification of the exercise price, during the year ended December 31, 2012 we recognized a cost to induce conversion of $225,000 relating to the additional 468,750 shares that would be issued under the modified exercise price.

SOL then elected to exercise the warrants to acquire 1,250,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.40 for which we issued 1,250,000 shares of our common stock to SOL. In consideration of the exercise of the warrants, Mr. Chung agreed to cancel the $500,000 owed to him. We recognized costs of $446,809 which represent the incremental fair value of the warrants after modification and was reflected as financing cost.

Effective February 18, 2009, we entered into a Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank, National Association, or Bridge Bank Agreement. The Bridge Bank Agreement, as amended to date, provides us with an accounts receivable based credit facility in the aggregate amount of up to $2,000,000.In 2012, we cancelled the Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank.

We believe that we presently have sufficient plant and production equipment to meet our current operational plan and we do not intend to dispose of any plant and equipment. We presently have 7 employees on a full-time basis and 1 employee on a part-time basis, and expect to hire additional personnel pursuant to increase in market demand. We plan to increase our present staff during the fourth quarter of 2013 to meet our operational plan for 2014.

Although, we expect the sale of consigned batteries and completion and delivery of the products in our backlog to provide us with additional liquidity and capital resources, we believe that we will need additional liquidity and capital resources through debt and/or equity financing to complete our entire existing and anticipated future product backlog. As discussed in this report and in the notes to our financial statements included in this report, we have suffered recurring losses from operations and at September 30, 2013, we had an accumulated deficiency of $30,463,957 and a working capital deficiency of $10,501,266.

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As a result, our independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on our 2012 financial statements, has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. We have been, and currently are, working towards identifying and obtaining new sources of financing. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in obtaining additional financing in the future. Any future financing that we may obtain may cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. Any debt financing or other financing of securities senior to common stock that we are able to obtain will likely include financial and other covenants that will restrict the our flexibility. At a minimum, we expect these covenants to include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends on our common stock. Any failure to comply with these covenants would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, our senior secured convertible debentures issued between July and December 2010 contain covenants that include restrictions on our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.

If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate portions of our operations and product and service development efforts or to obtain funds through arrangements with strategic partners or others that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or potential products or other assets. Accordingly, the inability to obtain such financing could result in a significant loss of ownership and/or control of our proprietary technology and other important assets and could also adversely affect our ability to fund our continued operations and our product and service development efforts.

Backlog

As of the date of this report, we had a backlog of $2,178,832. The amount of backlog orders represents revenue that we anticipate recognizing in the future, as evidenced by purchase orders and other purchase commitments received from customers, but on which work has not yet been initiated or with respect to which work is currently in progress. As of the date of this report, 31% of our backlog consists of vehicles, 51% consists of batteries, 9% consists of a drive system, 2% consists of vehicles system, 6% consists of controllers and the remaining 1% consists of parts and accessories. As of the date of this report, 77% of our backlog consists of U.S. customers, while 23% consists of international customers. We believe that the majority of our current backlog will be shipped within the next 12 months. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in fulfilling such orders and commitments in a timely manner or that we will ultimately recognize as revenue the amounts reflected as backlog.

In 2011 and 2012 we made significant investments in developing new products with our OEM partners and diversifying our market strategy to participate in lithium battery and energy storage system markets. We believe our strategy reduces our growth risk and provides us with additional flexibility during economic downturns and positions us for a more sustainable growth in the future. We rely on our OEM partners to market completed products in the regions assigned, with three of our four OEM partners completing prototypes during 2012 provides us with a better opportunity to sell additional electric drive systems during 2013. In domestic markets, we believe that increased restrictions on diesel trucks combined with government incentives for heavy-duty tractors may contribute to higher sales for our heavy-duty trucks and tractors. In the lithium battery market segment, we believe we have a significant cost advantage over our competitors. Although our competitors are substantially larger than us, we believe our low cost and technical support capabilities provide us an advantage in this growth market.

Effects of Inflation

The impact of inflation and changing prices has not been significant on the financial condition or results of operations of our company.

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, our principal accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded as of September 30, 2013 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to material weaknesses described below.

In light of the material weaknesses described below, additional analyses and other procedures were performed to ensure that our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were prepared in accordance with GAAP. These measures included expanded quarterly-end closing procedures, the dedication of significant internal resources and reconciliations and management’s own internal reviews and efforts to remediate the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below. As a result of these measures, management concluded that our consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods, presented in conformity with GAAP.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and reporting. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standard No. 5) or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2013 based on the framework in Internal Control–Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on the results of management’s assessment and evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of September 30, 2013 our internal control over financial reporting were not effective and identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2013:

(a)

We did not have qualified personnel to design and manage period-end financial reporting processes. Furthermore, we do not have a formalized and consistent finance and accounting policies and procedures and our Interim Chief Financial Officer does not have the requisite GAAP experience to prepare financial statements in accordance with GAAP; and

(b)

We did not have effective corporate governance and financial controls to ensure the completeness and accuracy of the accounting for, and the disclosure of, issuance of our securities such as shares of common stock, options and warrants

The foregoing material weaknesses contributed to a delay in the filing of our quarterly and annual financial statements with the SEC. In addition, these material weaknesses could result in misstatements of our consolidated financial statement accounts and disclosures which would result in a material misstatement of future annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As a result of these material weaknesses, management concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2013, based on the criteria established in the Internal Control — Integrated Framework , issued by the COSO.

Our annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting and management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Management's Further Remediation Initiatives and Interim Measures

In response to the identified material weaknesses, we have dedicated significant resources to improve our control environment. Management believes that actions taken beginning in December 2012, along with other improvements not yet fully implemented, will address the material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting noted above. Our management plans to continue to review and make changes to the overall design of its control environment, including the roles and responsibilities within the organization and reporting structure, as well as policies and procedures to improve the overall internal control over financial reporting. In particular, we have implemented, or plan to implement, the measures described below to remediate the material weaknesses described above.

We are implementing and/or enhancing a number of key accounting and finance-related policies and procedures, including with respect to our financial closing process, disbursements, treasury and stockholders’ equity. Furthermore, we are improving our existing internal control policies and implementing procedures to ensure that all required account balances are appropriately reconciled in a timely manner and that journal entries are properly prepared and approved.

We intend to retain the services of outside consultants with relevant accounting experience, skills and knowledge, working under the supervision and direction of our management, to supplement our existing accounting personnel.

We expect that these improvements and procedures will be substantially implemented by December 31, 2013 and we intend to continue to monitor the effectiveness of these actions and will make changes that management determines are appropriate.

Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systems are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been or will be detected.

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
